Description
The TRUNCATE TABLE command executes an immediate physical deletion of all the records in the table i.e., records are permanently removed from the table, and cannot be recalled.
It is the equivalent of the NoSQL ZAP command but differs in that the table does not need to be already open, so it can be used from ODBC connections to a Lianja server.
Introduced in Lianja v2.0.
